Abstract
A three years old Jersey cross bred cow was presented with the signs of lympahadenopathy and catarrhal diarrhoea. Examination of faecal and peripheral blood smears revealed Eimeria spp. and Babesia bigemina. Haemato-biochemical analysis revealed alterations in the serum biochemical values. The case was successfully treated with sulphadimidine and diminazene aceturate with supportive therapy
